Whether you’re planning to get married or are already married, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements can offer financial protection and peace of mind. These legal agreements are especially important for individuals with substantial assets, business interests, or children from previous relationships.
Pre-Nuptial Agreements are created before the wedding and can define:
- Ownership of property and assets
- Financial responsibilities during the marriage
- Division of assets and debts in case of divorce
- Protection from the other spouse’s debts
Post-Nuptial Agreements are signed after the wedding and serve similar purposes but can also address financial changes that occur during the marriage, such as a career shift, inheritance, or the acquisition of new property.
These agreements aren’t just for the wealthy. They are practical tools that ensure both parties are on the same page financially and provide clarity in the event of a divorce. At Sallato & Associates, P.A., we can help you draft a fair and enforceable agreement that meets your unique needs.
